James Harden and adidas Basketball are gearing up for the launch of Harden’s next signature shoe, the Harden Vol. 9.
After months of leaks and teasers, the Los Angeles Clippers star officially debuted the Vol. 9 on-court on Monday, December 16th at the Intuit Dome against the Utah Jazz, scoring a whopping 41 points in the new model.
The design of the Vol. 9 builds off of the Harden Vol. 8, which featured an EVA cage with large teardrop-shaped cut-outs on the side panels. The side panels on the Harden Vol. 9 features similar tear-shaped cut-outs, though smaller and as a set of three to represent the adidas Three Stripes. The futuristic design is debuted in a futuristic-looking “Cyber Metallic” colorway dressed in a shiny silver hue.
Harden made a grand entrance at the Intuit Dome on Monday, pulling up in a metallic silver Ferrari to match his new signature shoe, with red interiors to match the red accents on the outsoles.
The adidas Harden Vol. 9 will be available in an assortment of colorways throughout 2025, kicking off with the “Cyber Metallic” on January 25th, available at adidas.com and select retailers. Grab a detailed look below.
